How much Dope
How much Dope How much NOS can I put through my Motor??
Recent Built Bottom end with H- beam rods and Mahle Pistons Rings were gapped for NOS (cant remember how much)also new stock crank and ARP throughout...Heads, Cam Ls6 inake,Headers.Etc..
Cam specs are 228/230 @600 lift.@113 or 114 Lobe...
On motor it makes 410 rwhp..(seems Low to me)
Thanks for input..

I don't know, bring it to me and lets see how much we can put to it

Seriously, there are guys here who are running 250 shots and larger thru stock bottom ends with only a cam. I would suggest for you to not do that. Those guys are experienced nitrous tuners and have their tune spot on.
I would suggest for you to put a 100 shot on and go from there. Make sure you have a device to pull timing or HPtuners and make sure you get a colder non-projected tip plug to put in there. NGK br6ef for the 100 should do fine for what you have.

Is it an auto or stick? Do you have a stock or aftermarket rear? If its an auto how big of a stall? If its an auto thats about right but a stick car might be a lil higher.
Remember, a dyno is a tuning tool. Dyno numbers mean nothing, the track will tell you how good the car is running.

That rear end is not going to handle what you make on motor.
But as far as the motor, it could handle 300hp if you can tune it correctly and have the right system on it.
This is a fairly general response since I am not exactly sure what answer your looking for.
And guys, anything is better than NOS.
I will accept:
Dope, Hose, Jet, Gas, Bottle, giggly, etc.

My car is not a daily driver and my future goals is to make into a 10 second car on motor... but knowing its a 346 i'll be happy with a dope car.. i have plans on buying a 12 bolt or 9" then make into a track only car....But for now it will be my street racer...LOL
I have NX kit NIB...all I need is a few things like fuel pressure ,Wideband, Nos Gauges to install...Anything else I need...

nos like the sponsor said. should handle at least 300 for sure. think about
2 or even 3 systems.. no joke.. 100-150 shot on a pedal triggered system and the rest on a hand held devise.. not shotting it all at one time makes it easier on everthing.. motor,tranny,rearend. tuning is everyting!!!

I can make sure you have everything but we need to get lined out what you have and how we are going to go about tuning it and at what power levels.
Thanks again

Those are very good solenoids however. The only thing that need's to be done IMO to the older NX noids is replace the fuel piston with a newer style that is not so sensitive to ethanol. The pump gas will bloat the material they used and it will swell shut.
Easy fix and still a very nice part.
If you are wanting to be capable of the 200hp+ range I can work with you and most of the system you have. If you think you will be content with the 150hp, I can help with the last few odds and ends and the tuneup with what you have there.
I would think that 150-250 if tune up is correct. Sprayed 200 on my stock shortblock many times over 4 years. Ran good fuel/ tr8 plug 18 degrees of timming and checked plugs. I think people blow up stuff due to the tune up on spray.
